You always have to double check what the actual warranty on a Flex power tool is from Flex directly. Lowes website labels almost all of them all as having a Lifetime warranty which is false. If you don't register your Flex Tool within 30 days you may miss out entirely or get a shorter warranty period. Also you need to retain a copy of your receipt (I say copy because chances are you won't be able to read the original printed with disappearing thermal ink after a couple years.) Similar to the hoops you jump through with Ridgid's Lifetime Service agreement.

Flex was an old trusted German brand. Since 2013 they have been owned by the Chinese tool manufacturer Chervon, Flex has been making most of the Kobalt branded power tools sold at Lowes for years and other elements of Chervon have been making most of the Kobalt hand tools. They also make the SKIL branded power tools & EGO branded battery powered lawn tools.

picked up the fan today. just checked the other two - no luck. should I see the reduced price online? for the fan, it says clearance and the price is as expected, but none of the stores around have any discounts on the saw and drill.

It would have to be in stock at the store for the discount to show. If it's "ship to store" or "ship to home" it won't be on clearance

Has ANYBODY found battery adapters yet for Flex? Kobalt, Ridgid, Ryobi, Milwaukee, anything? I searched for a good while through Amazon and Ebay with no luck and frankly I don't want another battery system. But for these prices I'd snatch the tools up

This is 24v not sure if this work with dewalt or Milwaukee's 18v. If it did work would be less power as well.

I work construction and never seen anyone use this brand before, are they any good? I could use the bandsaw and hammerdrill if they go on clearance but would also need batteries. Anyone seen kits with batteries on clearance?

I just got this Flex Impact wrench kit with a 5Ah battery for $67 yesterday. It wasn't showing up online or via brickseek, it was just there in the cage with the clearance sticker.

https://www.lowes.com/pd/FLEX/5014101997

I might go snag another just to Flip and make mine free.

I already tried it on a Honda crank bolt and it buzzed right off. I don't think I'll have any bolts tougher than that.

Also the Flex is an inch shorter than my Ryobi P262 but has about 100 lb more torque. So I just sold that on fleabay.
